lyrics

They're excited about the season.
The so-called experts are all aware.
Every Saturday is Mardi Gras.
There's confidence to spare.
The stadium falls silent.
Two hundred thousand eyes are peeled.
The QB gives the thumbs-up
As he's carted off the field.
There'll be no more conference records,
No more touchdown dance,
No more warm ovation,
And no more second chance.
'Cause the switches on the mainframe
Are incorrectly wired,
And the sessions with the devil
Left a lot to be desired.

I like watching the waitress,
But I think she's onto me,
Imagining her topless,
Pathetic as can be.
Yeah, I'm that much of an asshole.
Total strangers can figure it out.
I crawled back into Mommy's womb,
Crippled with self doubt.
So I cranking up the stereo.
Frowns will turn to smiles.
Soul reaches toward the heavens
As these tires chew up the miles.
But the switches on the mainframe
Are incorrectly wired.
And the sessions with the devil
Left a lot to be desired.

You can't fake a salt lick sculpture.
Can't manufacture fate.
Can't steal a kiss goodnight
After a disastrous first date.
Stop staring down the shotgun.
You can still lose with loaded dice.
You can fool the loan sharks one time,
But you cannot fool them twice.
So head on back to Philadelphia.
You can't avoid the pain.
Straighten out your collar,
And hook electrodes to your brain.
